Pretzel Turtles
"This recipe is out of Everyday with Rachael Ray Dec/Jan 2008. This recipe calls for dark chocolate, but I think milk chocolate would be yummy too! Time doesn't include time needed for setting chocolate."
- Ready In:
- 1hr 10mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Yields:
-
50 turtles
- Serves:
- 50
ingredients
- 1 (14 ounce) bag soft caramels (4 dozen)
- 1 (10 ounce) bag pretzel nuggets
- 12 ounces dark chocolate, finely chopped
- 2 cups natural almonds, toasted and finely chopped
directions
- Unwrap the caramels, then using a rolling pin, roll out each one into a 1/8 inch oval. Wrap a caramel around each pretzel nugget, pinching the ends to seal.
- In a double boiler over simmering water, melt half the chocolate, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Add the remaining chocolate, remove the top of the double boiler from the saucepan and stir until smooth.
- Place the almonds in a shallow bowl. Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Using a fork, dip a caramel covered pretzel in the chocolate to coat, tapping off any excess chocolate. Transfer the pretzel to the almonds and toss to coat; place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining pretzels. Let stand until set about 3 hours.

<br>I am a Registered Nurse currently working as a Director of Nursing in a nursing home for a large corporation. Since taking on my new position, I haven't had much time to cook, let alone play around on Zaar.
<br>
<br>Besides being addicted to Zaar,I am also a www.pogo.com addict! If you play on pogo, my screen name is tobearn_ look me up sometime.
<br>
<br>I am always looking to try new recipes out and so glad I found this site! I don't think I have signed out of it since I joined! :-) LOL
<br>
<br>I try to prepare hot meals for my picky family that is fast, and yummy. Although I do enjoy making some complex recipes at times.
<br>
<br>I hope you all enjoy the recipes that I have posted and the ones that I will post in the near future. (You have to try the Chocolate Enchiladas I have posted---- YUMMY).
